The Citizens of Humanity Baretta Relaxed Straight jeans are a new release for fall 2024. After years of writing denim reviews, I think I can say that straight leg jeans feel the most versatile and timeless— almost an anti-trend cut.

I love denim, and while always a popular wardrobe staple, it’s really having a moment right now. It would be hard to think of a fashion item that hasn’t been made in denim— coats, shirts, dresses, accessories, all of the things. Not only that, there are so many different styles of jeans out right now, and I personally love the variety.

Citizens of Humanity has quickly risen to the top with AGOLDE as my favorite denim brands. And while they’re different, they’re under the same business umbrella— so you could say “sister brands”. After connecting with the Citizens team last month at a luncheon in Nashville (hello, dream come true), they reached out to send the Baretta Relaxed Straight jeans to me a little bit early to try out and share for their release (a true honor).

How do the Baretta Straight Jeans Fit?

I got the Baretta Jean in my true size and they fit great. They’re a relaxed style, high-rise (11 7/8″) with a button fly closure. They are a full-length, straight leg jean with a 30″ inseam. I am 5’7″ and the length is perfect on me.

What are the Citizens of Humanity Baretta Jeans made of?

The Baretta Jean is made of 100% regenerative cotton. What is regenerative cotton? You can read all about Citizens of Humanity Regenerative Cotton Program, here. I highly recommend you read about it— it’s a great sustainability practice.

The denim is rigid, no stretchy fibers added to it. It will form to your shape and relax with wear. This style is currently available in three washes— babylonia (pictured above), piovere which is a dark indigo, and andreas which is a washed out black.

1.) Tailored Vest + Baretta Jeans + Kitten Heels

Vest // Jeans* // Bag* // Heels (old from Zara – new version)

The first outfit is perfect for early fall weather and great for work (if you’re able to wear jeans). I like the relaxed jeans sandwiched between the tailored vest and leopard kitten heels. The overall look feels casual-chic and modern.

2.) Cropped Cardigan + Relaxed Straight Jeans + Loafers

Cardigan* (similar, similar) // Sunglasses // Jeans* // Bag (similar same brand) // Loafers* (code: MICHELLE15 for 15% off your first order)

The second outfit feels relaxed yet put together. Outside of the rigid denim, everything in this outfit is neutral and soft— from the ribbed cropped cardigan, to the suede bag, to the buttery leather loafers. This is the perfect everyday outfit for fall.

3.) Striped Tee + Baretta Jean Cuffed + Sneakers

Tee* // Sunglasses // Bag // Jeans* // Sneakers (code: MICHELLE15 for 15% off your first order)

The next outfit is even more relaxed than the last, but with bolder details. The outfit is simple— a tee, jeans, and sneakers. The brown and white stripes on the shirt add interest, along with the bright red bag, and denim cuffed at the ankles. This look feels weekend casual and fun.

4.) Ribbed Shirt + Statement Belt + Baretta Straight Jean + Boots

Shirt // Sunglasses* (code: MICHELLE15 for 15% off your first order) // Bag* // Jeans* // Boots (similar same brand, code: TOMCZAK for 10% off)

The last outfit makes me think of dinner out with friends or a casual date night. The belt, sunnies, and bag break up the medium tones of the top, jeans, and boots, adding both contrast and interest. Another casual-chic outfit for any day of the week.
